11th, March 2009
Allphar Services has recently been re-accredited with the Certificate of Registration of Quality Management System to I.S. EN ISO 9001:2008. This deems Allphar Services has complied with NSAI standards to store and distribute healthcare products on behalf of Allphar Principals.
ISO 9001:2008 is the world’s foremost quality management standard, used by hundreds of thousands of organizations in over 170 countries around the globe. It sets out the essential requirements for a practical and effective quality management system (QMS) which is, in essence, a system for minimizing risk and maximizing opportunity. ISO 9001 sets out eight key principles of quality management:
- Customer focus
- Leadership
- Involvement of people
- Process approach
- System approach to management
- Continual improvement
- Factual approach to decision making
- Mutually beneficial supplier relationship.
These eight principles are not auditable, but are fundamental attributes of any quality management system. Among the many benefits of ISO 9001, the Standard helps organizations to improve customer satisfaction levels, internal efficiency and employee involvement.
